Bill Tieleman.Oct 8, Aif by Spice Radio 1200 AM

With as little as 3.7% of referendum ballots returned as of last week, our discussion of electoral reform in BC continues. Last week, we heard from Maria Dobrinskaya, advocating in favour of Proportional Representation. This week Am Johal is in conversation with Bill Tieleman from the 'No' side. A political commentator and former NDP political strategist, Bill argues for a rejection of PR in the 2018 referendum. Read more from Bill Tieleman on his website: http://billtieleman.blogspot.com/

Ep 216 Bill Tieleman Proportional Representation - Part 1 - No For the third time in the past 15 years, British Columbians are participating in a referendum to change the way the people of the province elect a government. In 2005, the Single Transferable Vote (or STV) was put to the people in a referendum that ran concurrently with the provincial election.   The referendum required a super-majority that included approval of 60% of the voters overall and simple majorities in 60% of the 79 districts in order to pass. It fell short of the required 60% overall by an extremely slim margin. Four years later, STV was soundly defeated.   The current government says it’s time to revisit proportional representation. It has scrapped the STV method and is providing voters with four options, with a 50 plus 1 threshold to pass. The first is to simply keep the current system.   If, however, you think it’s time to change the way we elect the people who govern the province, you are then asked to rank your pick from three options. Bill Tieleman of the No BC Proportional Representation Society is adamant that the referendum proposal is a bad idea. He campaigned against it in ‘05, in ‘09, and he’s once again warning voters against proportional representation.   We invited Bill Tieleman to join us for a Conversation That Matters about the case for No when it comes to proportional representation.   Simon Fraser University’s Centre for Dialogue presents Conversations That Matter. Join veteran Broadcaster Stuart McNish each week for an important and engaging Conversation about the issues shaping our future.

Audio of the full news conference with the 'No" sides Bill Tieleman and Suzanne Anton by Putting the week's hottest political stories under the spotlight.

In the fall BC will vote whether to adopt a system of proportional representation or maintain its current first-past-the-post electoral system. This week we'll have representatives from a group arguing for the current system and a group arguing for change. Arguing for "Yes PR BC" is David Moscrop. David is a political theorist and postdoctoral fellow in the Scholarly Communications Lab at Simon Fraser University. He studies democratic deliberation, citizenship, and how we communicate with one another and make political decisions. He writes for Maclean's Magazine and a few other outlets, and provides regular political commentary for television, radio, and print. He's currently working on a book about why we make bad political decisions and how we can make better ones (Fall, 2019). Arguing for "No PR BC" is Bill Tieleman. Bill is a political panelist regularly on CBC Radio and TV in BC and with other media. Bill has been Communications Director in the B.C. Premier's Office and at the BC Federation of Labour. Bill owns West Star Communications, a consulting firm providing strategy and communication services for labour, business, non-profits and government.

May 19 Inside Politics w/ Shane Woodford, Keith Baldrey, Vaughn Palmer, Alise Mills, & Bill Tieleman by Putting the week's hottest political stories under the spotlight.

As this episode airs, there are six days to go before British Columbia decides on the composition of their next Legislative Assembly. There is no shortage of reaction, insights, comparisons, polling, messaging appearing positive but mostly negative, and any other angle that may draw attention. And this is what the modern electoral cycle has become. Attention is the commodity that matters the most. Not issues. Not history. Not platforms. Electioneering is indeed an industry in the 21st century with an ever expanding multitude of ways for campaign money to be spent. It is fertile ground for research, demographic data collection, focus group messaging, But as this "science" evolves, so do the demands for accuracy relative to funds spent. There's the rub. EKOS Research Associates, Mainstreet Research, Forum Research, Ipsos, Insights West and many others are immersed in this always evolving industry. As things roll on, it's not just about selling their services to potential clients. It's about their own image, credibility and delivering value on their work. When the story about pollsters getting predictions wrong is as big as the actual results, you know we have entered a new era. When the BC Series kicked off on The View Up Here, it started by talking about corporate media's influence over smaller, independent sources that weren't reliant on advertising revenue or subservient to ownership pushing their preferred political viewpoints. This show has done its best to give those independents a venue hitting topics from a different perspective. We come full circle to look at how politics are now changed forever. Returning guests Grant G of the Powell River Pursuader and campaign/media/opinion veteran Bill Tieleman join once more, and Bob Mackin of The Breaker News guests to break it all down. #packyourshitChristy

Over Fifteen years. By almost all political measurement standards, the shelf life has expired on the BC Liberals. Some efforts have tallied a list of demonstrable failures by this regime, and it nears 120 in total. There is a huge gulf between the claims and boasts made compared to the empirical evidence to counter them. But in this 21st century spin cycle of mis-information, photo ops, bribing people with their own money when politically convenient and using the power of the state, the band has played on for a decade and a half. The writ has been dropped for the British Columbia general election on May 9th. Discontent is at an all-time high against the incumbents, with plenty of good reason. Take your pick - Site C, VanRE, #bced, Health Department firings, Quick Wins, LNG, BC Hydro, BC Ferries, BC Rail, the list goes on and on. Current polling would indicate the Clark era is over. But we've seen this before. What is different this time around? Bill Tieleman may be one of the busiest people in BC in the next four weeks. His insight and opinion is in high demand to decipher what will be a critical campaign for the future of the province by many outlets. The View Up Here is fortunate to have Bill drop by, spare us some time, and address some pressing issues. What are the themes of election advertising for the Liberals, NDP & Greens? Whose will work effectively?Polling is eerily similar to 2013. Are there any differences that stand out? Is the Alberta Effect in play?Corporate media has taken another big hit right before the campaign. Political ads will increase while actual reporting decreases. Who will write the narrative - press or parties?ElectionsBC allows candidate approval until April 18, one week into the writ. Does this favor any one party over the others?Is vote-splitting an issue for May 9th? The race is on for BC's future, today.
